Need A Programmers help.

Hello, all. I have two problems.

The first being, what I need help most on; I would like my character to constantly move right, along the X-axis. that way the player can only jump on platforms.

var groundSpeed : float; //Force applied when grounded
var airSpeed : float; //Force applied when in air
var jumpSpeed : float; //Force applied when jumping
var maxSpeed : float; //Max speed used for limiting Rigidbody’s lateral speed
var limitSpeed : boolean; //Determines whether or not speed limit should be applied
var onGroundDrag : float; //Rigidbody drag used on ground
var inAirDrag : float; //Rigidbody drag used in air

private var onGround : boolean = false; //Determines whether the player is grounded or in air
private var jump : boolean = false; //Determines whether the player should jump
private var rb : Rigidbody; //Reference to the rigidbody component of the game object
private var t : Transform; //Reference to the transform component of the game object

function Awake() {
rb = rigidbody; //Cache rigidbody component
t = transform; //Cache transform component
}

//Check for one-off input in the Update loop since checking for input in FixedUpdate can lead to lost input events
function Update() {
if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Space)) {
if(onGround) {
jump = true; //The player will jump when next FixedUpdate is called
}
}
}

//Apply physics forces in FixedUpdate
function FixedUpdate() {
rb.AddForce(Input.GetAxisRaw(“Horizontal”) * t.right * ((onGround) ? groundSpeed : airSpeed)); //Add force in the direction of movement
if(jump) {
rb.AddForce(t.up * jumpSpeed); //Add upwards force to make player jump
onGround = false; //Player is no longer grounded
jump = false;
rb.drag = inAirDrag; //Change rigidbody drag to allow for better movement in air
}
}

//Apply post-physics limits in LateUpdate
function LateUpdate() {
if(limitSpeed Mathf.Abs(rb.velocity.x) > maxSpeed) //If limitSpeed is set to true
rb.velocity.x = Mathf.Sign(rb.velocity.x) * maxSpeed; //Limit rigidbody’s x speed
}

//Check for collisions to determine when the player is on the ground
function OnCollisionEnter(collision : Collision) {
var collisionAngle = Vector3.Angle(collision.contacts[0].normal, Vector3.up); //Calculate angle between the up vector and the collision contact’s normal
if(collisionAngle < 40.0) { //If the angle difference is small enough, accept collision as hitting the ground
onGround = true; //Player is grounded
rb.drag = onGroundDrag; //Restore original drag value
}
}

The second, less important thing, is when my character gets to close to a platform and jumps it gets stuck. Im figuring it has to do with Drag, or Friction.

Thanks in advance.

Use the code tag to wrap your codes. Go Advanced and press the # button. Why don’t you use character controller? It’s more simpler for simpler stuff like basic movement jumping and stuff. Unity - Scripting API: CharacterController

to move along the x axis you do this

var speed  =  10;

function Update () {
transform.Translate(speed*Time.deltaTime,0,0);
}
